Monica has spent this week dealing with an absess tooth. After several visits to the dentist, endontist and oral surgeon, the recommendation was to remove the tooth that was causing the problem (pain and chipmunk-like swelling). So, the oral surgeon extracted the tooth this afternoon. Everything went well. Monica is in quite a bit of pain still and her face is still swollen but should start feeling better in a day or so. In the meantime, we have added antibiotics and pain-killers to her pill schedule.
Unfortunately, the timing for this tooth problem is not too good. Monica was to have an MRI tomorrow and her assessment at G.F Strong. We were able to re-schedule the MRI to Tuesday (immediately before the next scheduled visit to the oncologist). However, G.F. Strong could not re-schedule us until November, so Monica is going to try to tough out the assessment there tomorrow.
